Download or read book Groundwater Contaminants and Their Migration written by J. D. Mather and published by Geological Society of America. This book was released on 1998 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Special Publication presents a largely UK persperctive on groundwater contamination, 'warts' and all. It gives the international reader an oppurtunity to assess the standing of British contaminant hydrogeology in the world today. There are also international papers on organic contamination at industrial sites in the USA, minewater pollution from France and data, previously unavailable, from the major liquid radioactive waste disposal operation in Tomsk, Central Siberia. We hope that this compilation will enable both the experienced hydrogeologist and the interested scientist to discover how we have polluted, investigated and attempted to clean up mankind's most precious geological resource-groundwater.
Download or read book Dense Chlorinated Solvents in Porous and Fractured Media written by Friedrich Schwille and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1988-02 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is pioneering new information-the result of 20 years of research by the world's leader to help develop a genuine understanding of the behavior of the all-pervasive dense chlorinated solvents in the vadose and unsaturated zones. Now you can know the basic chemical processes for dense solvent spills, how spill volumes translate into magnitudes of contamination zones, how to remediate existing spills, and how to predict spill behavior. This new book is chemical, physical, quantitative, and qualitative-made especially valuable by 48 full-color illustrations and descriptions. This is an exacting work that should prove invaluable for years to come.
Download or read book The Migration and Attenuation of Gasworks Contaminants in the Chalk Aquifer written by Jonathan Mark Burton and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first gasworks were developed in the early 19th Century and their usage increased until the 1970's when the manufacture of town gas was phased out owing to the new natural gas supply. Consequently, gasworks often have a long history of potentially contaminative use. The main process utilised on these sites, coal carbonization, produced a broad range of potential contaminants including phenols, benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene (BTEX), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (P AH's), ammonium, and cyanides. This study has focused largely on ammonium and phenol migration and attenuation in the Chalk aquifer and overlying sediments, following the extensive characterisation of a former gasworks at St Albans, Hertfordshire, UK. Invasive and non-invasive techniques, including borehole construction, enabling core- retrieval, "--And geophysical investigation methods respectively, have been used to characterise the nature and extent of contamination and the possible migration pathways in the Chalk aquifer. Chalk pore-water quality analyses indicate that the aquifer is contaminated at depth, but attenuation of ammonium and phenol is sufficient to reduce .- 'concentrations to an acceptable level in the nearby Holywell Hill pumping station. Concentrations of ammonium, phenols and the BTEX compounds in fissure-derived water beneath the former gasworks are well above drinking water" standards, and long- term monitoring has shown that their distribution is closely related to fluctuations in water levels and changes in pumping regimes at the pumping station. Excavation and drilling work has highlighted the variability in the depth of the Chalk surface over the study area, and this has a significant influence on groundwater flow and contaminant -- distribution. Batch adsorption experiments on unsaturated and saturated zone sediments suggest that -phenol is only adsorbed by topsoil samples owing to the presence of specific fractions of organic matter. Ammonium adsorption was highest in unsaturated zone sediments and is closely related to surface area and cation exchange capacity. Leaching through cores suggests that the Chalk matrix has little potential for the attenuation of ammonium. Biodegradation appears to control the attenuation of phenol in the Chalk.
Download or read book The Chalk Aquifers of Northern Europe written by R.P. Farrell and published by Geological Society of London. This book was released on 2023-09-26 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cretaceous Chalk aquifers of Northern Europe underlie and support many sensitive ecosystems whilst at the same time being an important source of drinking water. Understanding, managing and protecting this valuable asset has always been a challenge and this volume brings together 25 papers representing current knowledge of the Chalk across a variety of thematic sections. The contributions look at aquifer properties, geology and karst; groundwater monitoring in the Chalk; groundwater management; groundwater-fed wetlands; engineering in the Chalk; heat and solute transport; diffuse pollution; and point source pollution. Geographically, the book includes studies undertaken in England, France, Belgium and Denmark. As well as academic papers, many of the chapters are practitioner focused and the editors hope that anyone working in Chalk groundwaters in Northern Europe, whether in academic, consultancy, water company or regulatory roles, will find this book an invaluable resource.

Download or read book Chlorinated Solvent Source Zone Remediation written by Bernard H. Kueper and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-04-23 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to help engineers and scientists better understand dense nonaqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) contamination of groundwater and the methods and technology used for characterization and remediation. Remediation of DNAPL source zones is very difficult and controversial and must be based on state-of-the-art knowledge of the behavior (transport and fate) of nonaqueous phase liquids in the subsurface and site specific geology, chemistry and hydrology. This volume is focused on the characterization and remediation of nonaqueous phase chlorinated solvents and it is hoped that mid-level engineers and scientists will find this book helpful in understanding the current state-of-practice of DNAPL source zone management and remediation.
